* kconfig: replace a `switch()' statement by a more flexible `if()' statementArnaud Lacombe2010-09-19
| | | | | | | | | | | With the upcoming dynamical configuration prefix, we can no longer assume that the prefix will start by a 'C'. As such, we can no longer hardcode this value in the `case ...:', so replace the `switch() { ... }' statement by a more flexible 'if () { ... }' statement.

* kbuild: fix oldnoconfig to do the right thingKyle McMartin2010-09-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 861b4ea4 broke oldnoconfig when removed the oldnoconfig checks on if (input_mode == nonint_oldconfig || input_mode == oldnoconfig) { if (input_mode == nonint_oldconfig && sym->name && !sym_is_choice_value(sym)) { to avoid oldnoconfig chugging through the else stanza. Fix that to restore expected behaviour (which I've confirmed in the Fedora kernel build that the configs end up looking the same.)

| | | | | | | | | | | | On BSD systems, `check-lxdialog' would select -lcurses as the default curses library which would conflict with -lncurses at runtime: curses' compatible symbols are getting handled by the system's curses library while the ncurses-specific symbols are getting handled by the ports' ncurses.

* nconfig: add search supportNir Tzachar2010-08-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Remove the old hotkeys feature, and replace it by an interactive string search. From nconfig help: Searching: pressing '/' triggers interactive search mode. nconfig performs a case insensitive search for the string in the menu prompts (no regex support). Pressing the up/down keys highlights the previous/next matching item. Backspace removes one character from the match string. Pressing either '/' again or ESC exits search mode. All other keys behave normally. Miscellaneous other changes (including Rundy's and Justin's input).

* kconfig: fix tristate choice with minimal configSam Ravnborg2010-08-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If a minimal config did not specify the value of all choice values, the resulting configuration could have wrong values. Consider following example: config M def_bool y option modules choice prompt "choice list" config A tristate "a" config B tristate "b" endchoice With a defconfig like this: CONFIG_M=y CONFIG_A=y The resulting configuration would have CONFIG_A=m which was unexpected. The problem was not not all choice values were set and thus kconfig calculated a wrong value. The fix is to set all choice values when we read a defconfig files. conf_set_all_new_symbols() is refactored such that random choice values are now handled by a dedicated function. And new choice values are set by set_all_choice_values(). This was not the minimal fix, but the fix that resulted in the most readable code.

This lead to a problem where the wrong per_cpu kmap_high_l1_vipt_depth could be incremented, causing a BUG_ON(*depth <= 0); in kunmap_high_l1_vipt(). The solution is to move the call to smp_processor_id() after the call to preempt_disable().

LKML discussions led to the conclusion that such barriers have to be added to the I/O accessors: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/683509/focus=686153 http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.ide/46414 http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.cross-arch/5250 This patch introduces a wmb() barrier to the write*() I/O accessors to handle the situations where Normal Non-cacheable writes are still in the processor (or L2 cache controller) write buffer before a DMA transfer command is issued. For the read*() accessors, a rmb() is introduced after the I/O to avoid speculative loads where the driver polls for a DMA transfer ready bit.

I'd missed updating the gate_vma handling in __get_user_pages(): that happens to use vm_normal_page() (nowadays failing on the zero page), yet reported success even when it failed to get a page - boom when access_process_vm() tried to copy that to its intermediate buffer. Fix this, resisting cleanups: in particular, leave it for now reporting success when not asked to get any pages - very probably safe to change, but let's not risk it without testing exposure. Why did ia64 crash with 16kB pages, but succeed with 64kB pages? Because setup_gate() pads each 64kB of its gate area with zero pages.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The etr events switch-to-local and sync-check disable the synchronous clock and schedule a work queue that tries to get the clock back into sync. If another switch-to-local or sync-check event occurs while the work queue function etr_work_fn still runs the eacr.es bit and the clock_sync_word can become inconsistent because check_sync_clock only uses the clock_sync_word to determine if the clock is in sync or not. The second pass of the etr_work_fn will reset the eacr.es bit but will leave the clock_sync_word intact. Fix this race by moving the reset of the eacr.es bit into the switch-to-local and sync-check functions and by checking the eacr.es bit as well to decide if the clock needs to be synced.

Subsequent checks will notice that the IRQ mask in the PSW and what lockdep thinks the IRQ mask should be do not correlate and therefore will print a warning to the console and disable lockdep. Fix this by doing all the work within the correct context. Signed-off-by: Heiko Carstens <heiko.carstens@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>
